That looks way too smooth, and the mistakes (random white specks) are not the mistakes anyone would make in ms paint. There’s a whole art to “realistically bad” art. The kinds of mistakes and weird details tell a specific story. (Andrew Hussie, the person who made the Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff one, has a bunch of forum posts from like 2010 talking about it)

Some places (like France) talk about positive and strictly positive, others (like England) about non-negative and positive
If adding serifs to the I is bad, I think a good alternative is adding a tail to the l (like a t without the bar). Some fonts do this and I’m a huge fan.
Positive integers are (a subset of) natural numbers
Is this an old image or do people actually want to do a men’s health month in the same month as Pride?
No. It doesn’t have the Latin ending -us, but actually ends with pus (fom the Greek word for foot). From the Greek origin, the plural would be octopodes. Octopuses is more usual.

MBMto TechTakes@awful.systems•Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 25th May 2025English10·12 days agoSorry if this doesn’t fit the thread. Just came across this non-profit called 80,000 hours, after they sponsored NotJustBikes. It “provides free career advice for finding a meaningful career that can help you make a positive impact on the world,” which actually sounds nice, but then I realised that they’re talking about AI risk and that this comes from the TESCREAL corner.

Also I hope it’s fake because that’s the tiniest aquarium and there’s no plants.

You almost gave me a heart attack. It’s Marge. (that said, I trust internet perverts enough to go for adult Maggie)
Edit: oh… it’s the blurred out one
I do the feeding thing, but mostly because it feels wrong to kill a mosquito and then just throw it in the trash
Also a friend tactic. It’s just a nickname
